CINE 483 Directing Practicum Workshop course requires that students direct a significant short film or video in collaboration with students from other concentrations. Emphasis is on visual and aural realization from a screenplay to affect an audience through dramatic screen presentation. Student directors take creative leadership of their project in collaboration with the producer. The ability to incorporate and maximize the value of contributions made by the cinematographers, editors, and other specialists will be assessed. Directors will create storyboards and shotlists, cast performers, participate in pre-production and production meetings, execute shooting within set production parameters, and supervise editing to a rough cut. They will be expected to continue with the project until delivery of a complete master ready for exhibition on either film or a broadcast video format.
